Immuneering (IMRX) will present a poster on its ongoing Phase 3 MAPKeeper 301 pancreatic cancer trial at ESMO on October 25, 2026.

The randomized, open-label study compares atebimetinib plus modified gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel with standard gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel in patients with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. The ESMO Congress runs October 23–27 in Madrid. Full abstracts are scheduled for publication on October 19.

Key Terms

3 terms
open-label medical
"A Phase 3 Randomized, Open-Label Study of Atebimetinib"
Open-label describes a situation where everyone involved in a study or process knows the full details, such as who is receiving a treatment or intervention. For investors, understanding whether a project or product is open-label helps gauge the level of transparency and potential biases, influencing trust and decision-making. It’s like knowing whether a test or experiment is conducted openly or behind closed doors.
nab-paclitaxel medical
"modified gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel (mGnP)"
A chemotherapy drug formulation in which the anti-cancer agent paclitaxel is bound to human albumin protein particles to improve delivery into tumors and avoid harsh solvent ingredients used in older versions. Investors pay attention because clinical trial results, regulatory approvals, patent or licensing status, and manufacturing capacity for this specialized formulation can drive sales, pricing power and a company’s future revenue potential — like a better-packaged product that reaches customers more effectively.
pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma medical
"Treatment of Patients with Metastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma"
A fast-growing cancer that starts in the cells lining the pancreas’ small ducts; it is the most common and aggressive form of pancreatic cancer. It matters to investors because its severity and limited treatment options drive high unmet medical need, large potential markets for effective drugs or diagnostics, and strong sensitivity of company valuations to clinical trial results, regulatory approvals, or changes in treatment guidelines—similar to how fixing a main leak can prevent major damage in a building.

About Immuneering Corporation
Immuneering is a late-stage clinical oncology company dedicated to keeping cancer patients alive and helping them thrive, with an initial focus on patients with RAS, RAF, and other MAPK-driven cancers. The Company is developing an entirely new category of cancer medicines, Deep Cyclic Inhibitors, designed to improve overall survival by three mechanisms: shrinking tumors durably with less resistance, preserving body mass by countering cachexia, and minimizing side effects to maximize performance status and combinability. Immuneering’s lead product candidate, atebimetinib, is an oral, once-daily Deep Cyclic Inhibitor of MEK, designed to improve survival across many cancer indications. The Company is conducting a global randomized pivotal trial, MAPKeeper 301, evaluating atebimetinib in combination with chemotherapy in first-line pancreatic cancer patients. The Company’s development pipeline also includes additional combination opportunities and preclinical stage programs. For more information, please visit www.immuneering.com.
